Two great white sharks, Savannah and Hilton, are leaving the Gulf of Mexico and moving into the Keys, according to Ocearch, a nonprofit research group that studies great white sharks and other apex predators.

Could the two sharks be best friends? Will we see pings off the Treasure Coast as the sharks move north? Only time will tell.

The last time Savannah took a vacation to the Treasure Coast was in January when she pinged off the coast of Fort Pierce.

"(Hilton's) little trip to the warmer waters provided some very interesting new data that we are very excited about... We could finally be seeing the full migration loop for North American male white sharks," Ocearch wrote on its Facebook page on Thursday.

Another immature female, Yeti, pinged in the Gulf of Mexico this past week.
